@Sandra ArnoldIf you are a real estate agent who is / will be involved in real estate, you want to see if Real Estate Professional status is a designation that you can claim in the future.Having a retirement account and deducting health insurance costs are some ways to further decrease your real estate agent commission income.Best of luck

Dilemma: I have a large amount of credit card debt, luckily with relatively low APR’s (13.499% & 7.99%), but it would probably take me a year or two to payoff when I get a decent job.

More specifically -- considering volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in LVP and laminate, and the health effects that could come with exposure to the VOCs. 

I had health issues over this.Eventually I found an insurer at twice the cost for much worse coverage.

Ethical dilemma if you have been communicating with a buyers agent.To sum things up, if you are a newer investor and want to limit risk use a agent you have formed a relationship with.

With that said, I’m a small business owner with not a huge amount of NOI because I’m getting killed on biz insurance, health insurance and franchise fees. 

@Eva Hambrick a few things...First, I obviously want a CPA who is a experienced in rental real estate; including things like depreciation, capital improvements vs maintenance expenses, passive activity losses, applying 1031 exchanges, etc.Second, as both a business owner and real estate investor, I want my CPA to understand that I have both earned income and passive income, and help me strategize how to reduce my tax liabilities from this standpoint.Finally, I want my CPA to be proactive in helping me plan and manage my tax strategy as part of my overall financial health all year long, not just file my tax return in April.

At the moment, I believe the following tasks are NOT delegatable and remain core tasks:-Developing relationships by providing value-Getting smarter through learning, taking action and speaking with people-Being healthy - mental health and physical health through fitness/diet-Casting a vision or strategy for your life and your team's lifeSome tasks I believe can be delegated/systematized:-Finding deals - with help of brokers, wholesalers, marketing-Scheduling -through softwares like calendly-Property management through traditional property managers or digital assistantsThese are just a few that come to mind. 

Hey everybody, I have a bit of a dilemma I would love some input on.
